Snow Patrol

From the Source

The fifth single to be taken from the Eyes Open album, ‘Open Your Eyes’ is a tale of disenchantment and frustration in true Snow Patrol style. On this single you’ll find the title track backed by ‘I Am An Astronaut’, a song that had previously appeared on the Save The Children album, Colours Are Brighter.

The ‘Open Your Eyes’ video is made up of footage is taken from cult 70’s flick, C'était Un Rendez-vous. The movie was shot through a car’s windscreen as it races at top speeds through the streets of Paris. Snow Patrol were the first people ever to be granted permission to use the film’s footage by director Claude LeLouch.
